The periodontist can use the roof of your mouth as the donor site. Sometimes the periodontist will use human freeze-dried skin for the donor tissue like what is used for a burn patient.

For pinhole gum grafting surgery first, you will need to be seen by a dentist who is certified in pinhole to see if you’re a candidate for pinhole surgery. Surgery is performed using a local anesthetic like Novocaine. After surgery Advil or ibuprofen is generally adequate for postoperative pain management. Sometimes there is some swelling.

Gum disease or periodontitis causes bone loss around teeth. The bone is what holds the teeth in and the gums protect the bone. With progressive bone loss, the teeth will become loose and can fall out if it gets to be severe. Also, uncontrolled gum disease is a risk factor for several other inflammatory diseases including cardiovascular disease, stroke, Alzheimer’s, pre-term labor with weight babies, diabetes, lung infections, and increased incidence of certain cancers.
